EMX1 Antibody

EMX1 is a homeobox transcription factor involved in specifying cell fates in the developing central nervous system and it participates in the development of olfactory neurons. EMX1 is specifically expressed in the developing telencephalic cortex expression, where expression is restricted to pyramidal neurons. EMX1 is a reliable marker of pyramidal neurons and pyramidal cell lineage. EMX1 has been shown to be one of the downstream target genes for Gli-Kruppel family member 3 (Gli3) transcription factor, which is a part of the Sonic hedgehog-Patched-Gli signaling pathway important in endocrine signaling. Anti-EMX1 Antibody has been tested for use in ELISA and Western Blotting. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Expect a band at approximately 28 kDa in Western Blots of specific cell lysates and tissues.
